title: [Tumors of the submandibular gland].
abstract: The authors have analyzed 148 cases with submandibular gland tumors treated surgically in ENT Department of County Hospital Nr 1 in Rzeszów from 1974 to 1994. Inflammatory tumors occurred in 123 (83%) patients, in this number non-specific inflammation caused by calculi occurred in 120 (97.5%) patients and specific inflammations (tuberculosis) in 3 (2.5%) ones. Neoplastic tumors occurred in 14 (56.0%) patients and non-malignant in 11 (44.0%) patients. Among malignant tumors adenoid cystic carcinoma occurs most frequently (8 cases, 57%), whereas among non-malignant ones pleomorphic adenoma is most frequent (10 cases, 91%).
